No matter where you live, from a small flat to a large house, proper ventilation is essential.
So today, Hamilton Windows is offering a few hints and tips for ensuring that your home or office is kept nice and airy, no matter what the time of year…
#1. Consider a windows upgrade
There are many windows available on the glazing market, which encourage good ventilation.
Tilt-and-turn windows, for example, are an excellent solution. Specifically, the tilt feature of these functional frames can be used for daily airing and ventilation.
#2. Open up the space with bifolding doors
Opening your windows and doors will allow maximum air to circulate for effective ventilation.
Bifolds are particularly good at this. And whatever their configuration, you’ll be able to fold them in and away, bringing the outdoor air inside.
#3. Invest in a dehumidifier
In the winter months, a dehumidifier can also help make sure your property is sufficiently ventilated.
Removing excess moisture from the air, you’ll minimise the chance for condensation build-up, which can lead to more sinister issues, including damp, which can wreak havoc on your property.
#4. Fit an extractor fan
An extractor fan in your kitchen or bathroom is another way of ensuring proper ventilation. After you’ve taken a shower or cooked something on the hob, it’s common to see condensation on your mirrors or windowpanes.
An extractor fan, however, will remove excess water vapour in the air, and reduce subsequent condensation and damp.
#5. Open your windows and doors
It may seem like a simple solution, but intermittently opening your windows and doors can ensure that the rooms of your property are sufficiently ventilated, as we saw with tilt-and-turn windows and bifolding doors.
Make sure you always remember security considerations, and never leave your windows, doors, or conservatory ajar or unlocked whilst away from home.
